Stamford, Connecticut | Hybrid (3 days in-office, 2 days remote)
$180,000–$220,000 + 30% Bonus

The Opportunity

You'll join a small, high-impact team building and maintaining the risk management platform that client risk teams rely on to monitor and mitigate client-facing exposure across global operations. Your work directly supports margin governance and risk reporting for a business where accuracy and uptime matter every single day. This is a chance to own critical systems end to end rather than just touch a piece of them.

Your Day-to-Day

• Design, develop, and maintain server-side components using Java and the Vert.x framework
• Build and enhance front-end interfaces with Vue.js, HTML, and CSS
• Write and optimize complex Oracle SQL queries, stored procedures, and data models supporting margin rate governance and risk reporting
• Own the full software development lifecycle: requirements, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance
• Monitor system health and performance, catching and resolving production issues before they escalate
• Contribute to code reviews, technical documentation, and knowledge sharing across the team
• Take full ownership of your assigned modules, delivering high-quality work on your own timeline
• Refactor and tune existing systems to keep them fast, stable, and maintainable
• Build your understanding of financial instruments and concepts as you go

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience as a Full Stack Developer with a strong Java back-end focus
• Hands-on experience with Vert.x or a similar reactive/event-driven Java framework
• Proficiency in Vue.js, JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3
• Strong working knowledge of Oracle SQL, including query optimization and schema design
• Solid understanding of RESTful API design and integration
• Experience in financial services or another high-stakes production environment
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven approach
• Comfort working independently within a small, collaborative team
• 5-15 years of relevant work experience
• Bachelor's degree in Business Information Systems or related field

Preferred:

• Experience with Perl and/or Python for scripting, automation, or data processing
• Familiarity with risk management concepts, margin systems, or financial regulatory frameworks
• Exposure to low-latency or high-availability system design
• Experience in an Agile or iterative development environment
